AS WE WERE ...
Tk
.HE University of Maryland was or-
ganized December 28, 1807, as the College of Medicine of Maryland. On
December 29, 1812, the University of Maryland Charter was issued to the
College of Medicine of Maryland.
The first lectures on dentistry in America were delivered by Dr. Horace H.
Hayden in the University of Maryland, School of Medicine, between the years
1821 and 1825. These lectures were interrupted in 1825 by internal dissension
in the School of Medicine. It was Dr. Hayden's idea that dentistry merited
greater attention than was given it by the medical instruction. With the support
of Dr. Chapin A. Harris, he appealed to the Faculty of Physics of the University
of Maryland to create a dental department. This request having been refused,
they decided upon an independent college. A charter was applied for and
granted by the Maryland Legislature, February 1, 1840. The first faculty
meeting was held February 3, 1840, at which time Dr. H. H. Hayden was elected
President and Dr. C. A. Harris, Dean. The introductory lecture was delivered
by Dr. Harris on November 3, 1840, to the five students composing the first
class. Thus was established the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery, the
first dental school in the world.
In 1873 the Maryland Dental College, an offspring of the Baltimore College
of Dental Surgery, was organized and continued instruction until 1879, at which
time it was consolidated with the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery. A
department of dentistry was organized at the University of Maryland in the
year 1882, graduating a class each year from 1883 to 1923. This school was
chartered as a corporation and continued as a privately owned institution until
1920, when it became a state institution. The Dental Department of the Balti-
more Medical College was established in 1895 and continued until 1913, when
it merged with the Dental Department of the University of Maryland.
The final combining of the dental educational interests of Baltimore was
effected lune 15, 1923, by the amalgamation of the student bodies of the Balti-
more College of Dental Surgery and the University of Maryland, School of
Dentistry. . Thus we find in the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery, Dental
School, University of Maryland, a merging of the various efforts at dental
education in Maryland.

AS WE ARE TODAY...
IHE School of Dentistry now occupies
its new building at the northwest corner of Lombard and Greene Streets,
adjoining the University Hospital. The new building provides approximately
45,000 square feet of floor space. A sufficient number of large lecture rooms
and classrooms, a library and reading room, science laboratories, technic
laboratories, clinic rooms, locker rooms, etc., are provided. The building is

WE PRESENT TO YOU..
To you fellows who are being graduated, Dr. J. Ben Robinson, the
dean of our noble institution, has assigned a very important message.
When it has been duly read and stamped into your memory, turn
over a couple of pages and you will find the people who execute
the routine buiness of running a dental school. You will also find
here the staff of the MIRROR of 1937, which humbly bows and
fondly hopes that its work will not have been in vain.
BOOK II
■*■■*••*■ At this point you may as well take off your hat and coat and stay
a while. As you turn the pages there will parade before you the
inspiring faces of your classmates forever recorded that they may
not escape your memory. Under their pictures you will find the
colleges they came from, the degrees they possess, and some idea of
what they think of one another. The lower classes are presented
in groups, and memorable events from the history of each individ-
ual class are contained herein. Read them; they are entertaining.
BOOK III
■k -k -k If you would like to get another look at your favorite instructor, this
is the place to find him. All you have to do is find the department
in which he works, and there he is, very likely all dressed up in
his blue-collared coat. The many departments are treated sep-
arately and there are many action views of clinics and laboratories.
Better take a look through some of these pictures, you may discover
yourself somewhere.
BOOK IV
* * ■*■ This division of the MIRROR is dedicated solely to organizations
and is meant to record the benefits which have accrued to you as
students who have been fortunate enough to become their active
supporters. It contains pictures of the fraternal groups and their
histories. Honorary societies and the purposes for which they
stand are presented.
BOOK V
• •*•■*• To supply a little flavor and thus make more digestible and sat-
isfying the contents of this volume, the editor and his staff solemnly
submit for your approval the following collection of cartoons, snap-
shots, and jokes, many of which were collected in the mail box placed
in the locker room. To those who so generously contributed,
due credit is given. The ads which are intermingled with these
features are of the highest caliber and merit your consideration.

-HE students' entrance is situated
anatomically anterior and to the midline of the dental school. It is bounded in
front by intense cold six months of the year and intense heat for the other six
months. It is bounded posteriorly by worry, gold foil and rubber dams. The
entrance is marked by an oblong opening (known as the door) for the passage of
gassed-up students, tradesmen, and members of the faculty. At a point four
feet within this opening it divides into two branches: one going upward to the
first floor, to the Dean's office, library, and the lockers of the upper classmen;
the other going downward emptying into the locker room of the lower classmen.
A MESSAGE FROM OUR
DEAN ...
In your courses at the
Dental School you have prepared yourselves for
practice in a great profession. You have worked
diligently and have achieved the goal of graduation.
In the future you will represent your School and
your profession as a practitioner in the health
service of the public. It is now your duty to maintain
firm allegiance to all that you represent by a thorough
application of the best principles of dental practice.

A DM I H I STRATI OH
J. BEN ROBINSON, D.D.S., F.A.C.D.
Dr. ROBINSON was born in
Clarksburg, West Virginia on April 16, 1883. His primary education was ac-
guired in the schools of his native state. After being graduated with honors from
Marshall College, at Huntington, W. Va., in 1908, Dr. Robinson was associated
with West Virginia University for three years doing work in mathematics and
science. After this excellent preparation he matriculated in the Dental School
of the University of Maryland in 1911. Dean Robinson's record in the Dental
School is one to be admired. He was prominent in scholastic activities and was
elected president of his class in his senior year. He was graduated at the head
of his class and was presented with the University Scholarship Gold Medal.
After graduation his record shows a progression of fine achievements. He
advanced from an instructorship in 1914 to Professor of Clinical Dentistry in
two years. After another two-years period he became Professor of Operative
Dentistry. In 1921 Dr. Robinson resigned to meet the demands of his dental
practice. During the six years spent in the service of our School he developed
courses in Operative Technic and Dental Anatomy which achieved and main-
tained a rank with the highest in the country. In 1924 Dr. Robinson resumed his
association with the School when he was selected to succeed Dr. Timothy O.
Heatwole as Dean of the Dental School.
Dean Robinson has contributed greatly to the field of dental education. He
has been active in a large number of organizations and publications. Only
recently he was appointed Dental Advisor to President Roosevelt's Cabinet
Committee on Economic Security. In addition to being a prominent dental
educator he is active in fraternity circles, and has been Supreme Grand Master
of Psi Omega Fraternity since 1931.
We shall always remember Dr. Robinson for his inspirational teaching, his
fine character and solid personality, his aggressive leadership and his effective
cooperation with the students and the faculty. We shall always appreciate
what he has meant to our school and to Dentistry in all its phases. We feel that
we have been very fortunate in knowing Dr. Robinson both as a teacher and a
friend. We know that to follow his ideals will mean our giving the best we
know how in the pursuit of our profession.

DIRECTOR OF ADMISSIONS
L
LN attempting to understand why so many
graduates have such a fond feeling in their heart for the University of Maryland, the old maxim
"the first impression makes the deepest impression," as much as any other factor, is the answer
to that question.
That feeling of being-at-home, which supplants that sense of utter helplessness experienced
by every freshman entering college, is due to the merry smiles, wholesome handshake — itself
a distinctive rarity — and the sincere words of greeting accorded by our Director of Admissions,
known in the catalogue, and officially, as Willard McConkey Hillegeist, but to his friends, which
means every student in the University, as "Hille."
With the exception of two years, Mr. Hillegeist has been in the service of the University since
he completed his scholastic work at College Park in 1912. After leaving the old Maryland Agricul-
ture College in 1912 he undertook practical agriculture work for a year and then returned to
the M. A. C. to act as secretary to Dr. H. J. Patterson, President. He held this position until 1915,
at which time he organized and became secretary of the Home Study Department. In 1917, during
the War period, he left the University for another year to do special detail work for the United
States Department of Agriculture. Late in 1918 Mr. Hillegeist returned to College Park to reorganize
the Registrar's Office and to take charge of that department of the University. In 1920, after the
consolidation of the University of Maryland and the Maryland Agriculture College, he organized
the Registrar's Office for the Baltimore Schools and, in 1921, he moved to Baltimore to work with
the professional schools.
When Dr. H. C. Byrd, in the course of his reorganization program, created the office of Dir-
ector of Admissions in June 1936, Mr. Hillegeist was called upon to organize and take charge of
this new department. Since
then his duties have included the
evaluating of credentials of appli-
cants, corresponding with and in-
terviewing prospective students,
and attending to other matters
pertaining to pre-registration.
Mr. Hillegeist's contributions
to the scholastic world are not
confined within our University,
for he was a co-organizer and
the first president of the Maryland
Branch of the American Associa-
tion of Collegiate Registrars. He
also served as a member of the
Executive Committee of the nation-
al group from 1920 to 1927. He
is also a charter member and first
secretary of the Lions Club Inter-
national of Baltimore. He is an
active alumnus member of Kappa
Alpha social fraternity and an
honorary member of Pi Delta
Epsilon, honorary journalistic fra-
ternity.
Each dental student knows
Mr. Hillegeist and knows how
pleasant and home-like the Uni-
versity appeared to him after first
meeting Willard M. Hillegeist,
W. M. HILLEGEIST er — er. pardon— "Hille."

KATHERINE TOOMEY
ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT
iVIl S S Katherine Toomey, our greatly-
respected administrative secretary, is endeared in many ways to the hearts of
all our graduates. She is the first person with whom a student has close contact
in our school and her friendly assistance in our affairs from our first visit until
.we graduate is verily a tradition. We who graduate cannot fail to remember
her many favors and her guidance.
Blessed with a strong will for what is right, she will fight untiringly for what
constitutes right, and as readily, she will do her utmost to aid any student in
a just cause. When we are in the wrong we may expect her firm opposition,
but a tempered opposition — a gifted guality of bringing out the best that is
in us to meet the situation at hand.
As we go forth in the world to practice our profession we shall meet many
strange people, face many awkward situations, endure many temporary failures,
along with our successes and forward strides. In all our affairs, be they large
or trivial, failures or successes, if we do but qualify our minds and our hearts
to follow a good human example we have practically won our battle. The
truest statement that we can make concerning Miss Toomey is that she has
furnished in herself a pattern for us that could not fail in any situation.

ASSISTING STAFF
MARY C. REED
Secretary, Operative Clinic
If we were asked
"Who always has a ready smile on her
face, a bottle of cement in one hand, a
roll of gold foil in the other?" we would
know the answer even if we hadn't read the subtitle. But there is even more
to Mrs. Reed's duties than dishing out sunshine, supplies and weather reports.
Our supply window is also the clearing house for financial details of all
the departments in the clinic. In addition to this duty, Mrs. Reed oversees the
sale of books every year. Besides being a financier and an expert judge of the
correct proportions of mercury and alloy, Mrs. Reed is a Notary Public — perhaps
this will explain why auditors have never found a mistake in her books. Here's
to you! Mrs. Reed; and we hope we per-
form our duties in dentistry as well as F T
you have performed yours at the supply
window.

FROM START TO FINISH
It may have been a perfect '36 to
many people; but even if a little oversized around the waistline, '37 seems to
be the number that appeals to most of the cap and gown wearers. To us, the
best part of '36 was that it ushered in the present academic year.
The R's had a big year, with Roosevelt and Richardson sharing honors as
outstanding men in the country. Dick didn't even have to worry about Maine
and Vermont, with Nacrelli to see that the works were well 'oiled.' Others
chosen were 'Rube' Colby, 'Chris' Nacrelli, 'Baldy' Friedberg, and 'Butch'
Zerdy. We believe the reason that Friedberg is always trusted with the class
funds is that if he did do any chiseling it would show. He would buy a toupee.
We wonder if about half of the class has a mania for wearing jewelry, for we have
noticed guite a few wedding rings on the hands of several sad looking mortals.
Dances were rather few this season because of the tightening up of the
Cotillion Committee and the inauguration of the 'closed' dances. Regardless
of this 'freezing out,' the seniors will have their share of sliding over the waxed
woodwork within the next few weeks.
A little reminiscence of the past four years may bring back memories,
pleasant or otherwise.
The first year held as its main interest a little 'cutting up' on the top floor,
together with test-tube experimenting and washing.
The sophomore year brought many new students into the fold and they
were taught the test-tube technigue and soon they mastered the art of sharp-
ening a scalpel for the church 'team.'
The pre-junior year was the year of 34-35 and, so they say, the weather
was pretty good; but the only way we could find that out was by looking at
the almanac. The nights at the North Pole, they say, last six months, but the
pre-junior year lasted eight months, with two weeks off for Christmas.
Then came the first year in the clinic. How those white gowns and name
cards tickled the vanity of all of us "rubes." The first patient story has been
repeated so often, each story with a different angle, and each instrument with
just the wrong angle. After the first hundred points we were just about as
good as any one that ever handled an instrument. After much hard work and
worry we all came through the storm, even if the summer was really very warm
for some. The year came to a climax with an apology, because of our over-
enthusiasm in receiving blue books from a certain "gasser." You know, when
too much heat is applied, the water will boil over and put out the flame. I
guess that is what happened in this case, as the flame no longer burns us up.
Seniors at last — the last lap in this steeplechase. But those jumps and
hurdles get higher and higher — wow! Prosthetics and Oral Surgery didn't
help Herbie's bald spot or Lem's gray hair any, but, as 'H. B. McC always
says, "Don't worry, you'll all be there." He has the right idea, all right, and
we hope that the above guotation will be a reality.
The Senior year is now a reality and the 1200 points is just a dream. Well,
as all good things go, we go — we hope.

REMEMBER...
* * ■* the days m the dissecting rccm when the boys threw lungs, kidneys, spleens, n-.uscles,
etc., at each ether while the instructors were not in sight . . . the night when Casey, driving
Eamich's car without tail-light, license, or registration, was arrested in Washington and lodged in
cell 23. The only way that Casey could convince the officers that he was a dental student was to ex-
hibit freshly extracted teeth that he carried in his pocket . . . the day that Dr. Dobbs threw Kenny
Downes out of class for imitating Tarzan . . . when the boys in the "frat" house shaved off half of
"Who Did It" Finklestein's moustache while he slept . . . the way GUck slashed through muscles,
nerves, and structures and then walked away, leaving Gaudreau "holding the bag" when he saw an
instructor approaching . . . the "gas" we took when Eddie brought down the "blue books" before
an Anatomy lecture . . . the day our class went to a football game at the Stadium and Heuser, K.
Downes, Sloan, and a few others played- the clowns . . . the regularity with which Yoffe put in a
tardy appearance at lectures . , , how "Ike" Sloan kept us constantly posted on the latest styles ap-
pearing in Esquire . . . when Zeiner first came to town. The first day he went into a cafeteria and
sat down with the expectation of being waited upon. After an hour he became disgusted and walk-
ed out to get his lunch in a drug store. The same thing occurred on the second day. After that he
was a constant patron of the pharmaceutical dealer for about two weeks until his boy friend came
to school and showed him the ropes ... at the beginning of the Freshman year how impossible it
sounded when we were told that we would have to carve a celluloid tooth completely in one period
as a practical examination . . . the earthquake created by Eamich's shaking while giving his first
anesthetic . , . when a small boy approached Leonard and asked if he could have the teeth in his
mother's denture sharpened . . . when Rosen, Heuser, and others extracted the wrong tooth . . .
the profitable "all day" assignment that Kanelos had in the extraction room. He took out one tooth
. . . "Gas House" Henry Davis' urgent need of points and patients . . . the "rubber dam strike"
. . . when Dr. Mott got sore because of the class' good-natured "booing," and the apology that we
sent him . . . when Greenberg told Dr. Dorsey to administer a sedative in cases of fainting . . .
when Zeiner' s patient presented him with a diaper and bestowed upon him the degree of Doctor of
Diapers . . . when Lubarsky flowed the cast for a bridge without first removing the abutments from
the patient's mouth and placing them in the impression . . . when Leonard prepared an anesthetic
solution using aromatic spirits of ammonia instead of Ringer's solution . . . the "campaign cigars"
before the Pre-Iunior Class election . . . the cunning activities of "G-Man" Eamich, finger-print
specialist, in tracing down a stolen contra-angle . . . when Riggin leaped up and yelled out "Not
necessarily so, Dr. Ide" . . . when after a rather lengthy discussion by Dr. Ide on the subject of
"Pressure Anesthesia in Operative Dentistry," Greenberg suddenly awoke from deep slumber and
asked if pressure anesthesia could be used for operative dentistry . . . when Pugh returned from a
summer camp with his hair bleached . . . when Zeiner got his first patient and after setting up his
case in preparation for a prophylaxis discovered that the patient was wearing full upper and lower
dentures . . . the pleasant hours spent in the Dixie Theatre during "off hours" . . . when Nacrelli
stated "Why only yesterday I walked right through the occlusal surface with a 701 cross-cut fissure
bur."

A JUNIOR'S DIARY
September 28 — Yes, Sir, we're Juniors now! Dean Robinson and Miss Toomey
said so and pushed us out into the infirmary where we look
dentistry square in the face. Indeed, we are now "Men in White" with a
wavering superiority complex.
But we've an important matter to take care of before we can start cutting
capers on the clinic floor and that's the election of class officers.
October 7 — Ah, this is the day! The National Election can't compare with
this class when it comes to picking a leader. Today we congre-
gated in Room 34 and later in the "stiff" building across the street. Heated
orations were given on the merits of likeable candidates. Everyone asked
questions but lew dared an answer. After the scalping was over we found
ourselves with a new president, "Bing" Barnes. We pledged ourselves to
support his administration as well as Roosevelt's.
We're saying "Hats off!" to our outgoing president, Eugene Lyon. "Gene"
did a fine job last year considering the difficulties encountered when noble
ventures received undue criticism and little support.
For the coming year Al Boro, as Vice-President, will act as aide to Barnes.
The "stooges" follow in their respective official positions: Floyd Neal takes the
job of secretary while Saltman plays the role of banker (we sure need one).
John Barker, as Sergeant-at-Arms, maintains the discipline of our class.
November 10 — Oh ho! The school's rich again after socking each stude
$10.00, the proceeds to be used toward various enterprises
including a "gold foil fund" for tough-luck juniors. The Faculty allows us
student representation in this business so today we elected Eugene Lyon to
act as the guiding hand in directing the expenditures for the various activities.

September 1936 — Well, we're back again with scarcely a face missing.
Everyone looks rested and ready for work. The tramp to
the supply house begins and cash on hand dwindles. Soon a typical letter from
home reads, "Whaddya think we're running here, a mint?" However, gold
continues to be bought and burned.
Flash ! — Dr. Latcham discontinues pre-breakfast lectures in Operative. We
respectfully submit a rousing vote of thanks on behalf of the class.
Most of the class held an informal reunion at the Southern Medical Con-

Auerbach finally emerged, battered but victorious.

Freshmen form the League of Nations. Cohorts of condescension hail
from Cuba to Connecticut and points west.
Beginning at the sunny South, where December brings sunshine, flowers,
and real rhumba, we find Mario Repose reclining in the shade of his brother's

the whiteness of snow.

Returning to and from the soil of West Virginia we have John Bonham.
Johnny knows why butter is yellow in the summer time.
The technigue flash, "Jably" Yablanski, hails from Connecticut, where
technigue is born within.
Sticking right around town, we find that Ben Dabrowski and Jean Pessagno
went to different schools here in Baltimore. It took the University of Maryland
Dental School to bring these two sparklers together.

Jim Piccolo shows great preference for U. of M. over the home town Univer-

School this year.
Rhode Island offered food for thought to Bert Litchman. When he had
consumed all it offered, he sought more elsewhere, and here he is.
Feminine hearts beat quicker whenever Jersey girls learn that Sid Belinkoff

Horace Westcott was exposed to "larnin' " in Connecticut. It's surprising

As far as this yere person is concerned, New York's loss is Baltimore's gain.

TWO DOWN AND FOUR TO GO
iO our class falls the honor of being
the first class to take the second-year predental curriculum under the new
six-year plan. We have nearly completed the two years of predental work,
and hope next year to begin the study of dentistry. Although we shall confront
several difficult courses, every member of the class feels assured that he will
succeed in the oncoming year.
The first activity of the class, as a group, was to elect its class officers-
Sterret Beaven was selected as our noteworthy president; Murray Storch,
Vice-President; Gilbert Caldwell, Secretary; Jerry Cohen, the man everyone
tries to avoid, as our Treasurer; and that huge Daniel Berman, as Sergeant-
at-Arms. Donald Frey was later elected as the Class Representative.
On December 5, the predental dance was held at Levering Hall, on which

occasion everyone had a joyous time. The syncopations were furnished by
Bob Craig.
Before adjourning for the Christmas vacation the class donated a fine
assortment of foods, which was presented to the Family Welfare Association
for the purpose of distributing them to needy families.
Although many of us envy the boys who didn't come under the six-year
plan, we feel that we have derived a great good from the new curriculum, and
are looking forward with enthusiasm to the freshman year.

YOU WILL HEAR MORE FROM US
in I S is the second Freshman Pre-
dental Class to be organized under the six-year plan. The class met as a whole
for the first time Thursday, September 24, 1936, in the fourth-floor chemistry
laboratory. A great misfortune befell one of the members of the class on that
memorable day. Lewis Toomey almost succeeded in drowning his fellow
classmates by unfortunately connecting a Bunsen burner to a water spigot
and turning on the old H2O full force. The loud spat with which the water
hit the ceiling gave convincing proof that the first class period was started off
with a bang. This unfortunate experiment was repeated but a few weeks ago
by Wetland, a close friend of Toomey's. I wonder if they were plotting against
the class?
With the exception of a few minor mishaps, the members proceeded to
conduct themselves in an orderly fashion until the big event of 1936, the class
dance. This was, indeed, a spectacle to behold. Formally attired, each member
strutted about like a proud rooster, trying his best to outdo his fellow classmates
in one way or another. On the whole, however, the affair was guite a success.
This result prompted each participant to look forward to the next social gathering
with zeal.
Things now went on smoothly until the one hundred and thirtieth anniver-
sary of the founding of the University, February 11, 1937. Five members of

the class were selected to represent the Dental School in a commemorative
radio program over WBAL. Under the able supervision of Mr. Foley, a historic
play v^as enacted, which later produced quite a bit of discussion. The play,
however, was considered well done by the few (?) who heard it.

This is the
smiling blue-eyed lady who would
wait so patiently for you to finish
down that amalgam before you
answered your telephone call. In
her you have an inestimable friend.
Only she would take your side
against the most righteously in-
dignant patient. Only she would
do the thousand and one little
favors you asked of her every hour
of the day, week in and week out. On reflection, you are sure to agree that
it would have been quite difficult to get along without Miss Mullen's friendly
helpfulness. Being a friend in need, she was a friend indeed — and will be
remembered as such by all of us.

IH E teeth are carved out
of ivory. The lower is made in three sec-
tions, an ivory base to fit the lower ridge,
sectioned on the upper portion to receive
the carved teeth made in two sections.
These teeth are united to the lower portton
by means of wood dowels. The posterior
buccal surfaces contain gold posts to which
are attached the extremities of the round
wire spring to retain the dentures. The
upper teeth are carved from ivory, two sec-
tions being used and mounted by means of
plates and rivets to a gold base. Gold loops
are attached to the extreme posterior portion
of the plates through which the gold springs
pass before being attached to gold pins for their retention.
There is little authentic data regarding the time of making the dentures. We do know that
they were made prior to 1798. At that ttme they had been returned to Dr. Greenwood for repair.
In a letter dated December 28, 1798 Dr. Greenwood wrote to General Washington describing his
method of repair and included a bill for $15.00. They were presented to the Baltimore College
of Dental Surgery by Dr. John Allen, who had obtained them from a grandson of Dr. Greenwood.

HISTORY OF
SIGMA EPSILON DELTA FRATERNITY
OIGMA Epsilon Delta, national dental
fraternity, had its inception at the New York College of Dentistry during the
summer of 1901. The purposes of its founding were as follows: to unite certain
members of the dental profession for the promotion and perpetuation of fra-
ternalism; to develop and elevate the highest ideals among its members; to
defend the mental and moral characters of its brethren; to foster and inculcate
the highest principles of honor and patriotism; to promote the highest excellence
in the science and art of dentistry and its collateral branches; to bring about
through fraternal cooperation, a closer union between the undergraduate
and the graduate members; to assist the undergraduate members in their
studies and help them attain the highest standards of the profession.
The Epsilon Chapter is a relatively recent addition to the other already
prominent chapters in the East. This chapter, organized on February 22,
1926, at the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery, University of Maryland,
102 •
is recognized as one of the most active and outstanding chapters in the entire
fraternity. From its inception, Epsilon has engaged in a very active, progressive,
intense campaign of fraternalism. Efforts have been so strenuously engaged
and conscientiously fulfilled that its expectations have been more than realized.
In the short period of its existence it has succeeded in banding together an
amiable group of active f raters. At the time of its founding there were nine
members; since then it has grown until today it takes its place among the leading
organizations at the Dental School. Epsilon has realized the necessity and
advantage of good scholarship, not only in molding good students, but also
in making good dentists.
To its fraters who are leaving this year to take their places in the professional
world of their choosing, it extends its congratulations and good wishes. They
have but to follow the lead and the ideals of those who have left in the previous
years and success is assured them.

HISTORY OF
XI PSI PHI FRATERNITY
In 1889, at the University of Michigan in
Ann Arbor, six men decided to form a fraternity which was to be composed of dentists and dental
students, united in branches for the purpose of expanding the principles of knowledge, morality,
and friendship. Of these six illustrious men, three are still living. As the year of 1939 brings
forth the Golden Jubilee which will be held in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on February 8, it is hoped
that those three men will be present to inspire, even further, the wonderful work they began fifty
years ago.
The aim of the fraternity is to promote social unity among dental students and to render any
possible assistance to them; to prepare them for a keener appreciation of the value of brotherhood,
intellectual advancement and sociability.
From the small gathering at its beginning, the Xi Psi Phi fraternity has grown unhl ic may now
boast of twenty-eight chapters and seventeen Alumni chapters located throughout the United
States and in Canada.
' In June, 1923, the Eta chapter originated — from the Delta chapter of the Baltimore College
of Dental Surgery which began its chapter in 1893 and continued when the school was joined with
the University of Maryland — and has the distinction of being one of the leading chapters of the
school.
It is with regret that we must part with the graduating members who have always been achve
in the chapter work, and it is our wish that they will be active as Alumni and have the best possible
success in the Dental profession. May we look forward to seeing them at our Golden Jubilee in
Ann Arbor, Michigan, on February 8, 1939.

HISTORY OF
DELTA SIGMA DELTA
iHE year 1937 marks the 55th anni-
versary of the founding of Delta Sigma Delta. The Alpha Chapter was founded
in 1882 at the University of Michigan by a small group of dental students who
conceived the idea of a fraternal organization, founded on the broad principles
of brotherly love and mutual benefit, for the social and professional advance-
ment of its members. From this small group of charter members the organization
has thrived and grown to very large proportions. At the present time its member-
ship is numbered in the thousands and is fully organized into student chapters
in practically all dental schools and into graduate chapters in leading cities
in this country and abroad. It includes among its members many of the leaders
of the profession and a representative group of the rank and file of dental
students and practitioners.
With these thoughts in mind Delta Sigma Delta has advanced until today it
has a total of 32 chapters, with an even larger number of auxiliary chapters
scattered throughout the world.
The Xi Xi Chapter was founded at the University of Maryland in 1931. Al-
though a comparatively new fraternity here, it is rapidly progressing.
To those brothers leaving us this year we express our best of wishes and
congratulations and may we soon meet again in the same Delta Sigma spirit.

HISTORY OF
PSI OMEGA FRATERNITY
Way back yonder in the fall of '92
(not 1492) at the old Baltimore College of Dental Surgery the newly-organized
Psi Omega Fraternity held its first meeting, taking Alpha as its chapter name.
The avowed aims were "To maintain the standards of the profession, and to
encourage scientific investigation and literary culture." At the University
of Maryland Dental School, another chapter, the Phi, had its inception in 1900;
and, after the amalgamation of the University and the old B. C. D. S., these
two chapters combined in 1924 to form the present Phi Alpha Chapter.
Fellow Psi Omegans live all over the world, the thirty-four active and twenty-
one inactive chapters totaling nearly nineteen thousand members; the largest
enrollment of any professional Greek letter fraternity.
A quarterly journal, the Frater — first published in 1900 — is devoted to
the "doin's" of active and inactive chapters, to articles and news of the dental
world.
On the night of April 25, 1936 the Five Farms Country Club was the scene
• 115
of much hilarity. The members and their chosen lady-friends were stepping
high, wide, and handsome to some tunes from the peppy orchestra playing
for the fraternity's Spring Formal Dance. All this activity could hardly be
understood by anyone who had seen the prodigious amount of food tucked
away inside those stiff shirts before the dancing began. — Oh, but the ex-
uberance of youth can always overflow on the slightest pretext. It was with
regret that the members took their departure, hurrying to be in time for the
milkman's customary, "Good Morning."
Soon after, we wished "Godspeed" to our seniors and went about the
business and pleasure of the summer vacation.
The first important social activity of the fall term was the Hallowe'en Pledge
Dance held on October 31, at the house. Members and pledgees mixed (no,
not drinks), showing the true fraternal spirit — with a bit of sisterly (?) assistance
from their respective (and — able) dates.
Many times during the informal initiation on November 6 the well-known
injunction, "Turn the other cheek," was obeyed; after which the victims donned
their war paint and took a modest hike. 'Tis a well-known fact that the Balti-
more water supply dropped dangerously low the next day and the families of
three victims splurged for new bathtubs. The formal initiation followed the
next week, establishing several fine embryo dentists among the ranks of the
brotherhood.
Other important dates were:
November 21, 1936 — Psi Omega Women's Dance — a most enjoyable
occasion for which we are indebted to the ladies interested in
the fraternity.
December 1, 1936 — Mr. Wm. S. Clark, of the Baltimore Association of
Commerce, gave a talk to members on "Professional Insurance."
January 5, 1937 — Dr. Henry C. McComas addressed us on "Applied
Psychology."
February 2, 1937 — The party of the first part. Brother "Mortimer"
Fetter, showed up for the "fetterstivities." — Some question of
Brother Casey's diet was finally settled satisfactorily.
February 12, 1937 — One of the most interesting and fruitful smokers
in the memory of the brothers was held.
February 13, 1937 — Many members, pledges, and their guests attended
the Valentine Dance at the house.
During the first semester we were honored by the acceptance of a Sister
Pin by Miss Verda Elizabeth James, '39.
At the time this was written several other speakers had been scheduled
and announcements made for another initiation before the Spring Formal,
to be held at Five Farms as usual.
Some of our most honored members will be taking leave of us this year
and we wish them the best of good fortune for an early start in practice, with
the hope they will be as helpful to an alumni chapter as they have been to us.

HISTORY OF
ALPHA OMEGA FRATERNITY
Ai
lLPHA Omega fraternity was founded in
1907 by a small, enterprising band of dental students, working on the idea that "in union there
is strength." The task of organizing was a great one, and it was only through the inspired and
zealous efforts of the charter members that the seed of Alpha Omega was planted. As the fratern-
ity grew through the addition of new chapters, the standards set down by these men were never
forgotten. These standards reguired that a man to become an Alpha Omegan should be of fine
character, maintain bearing fitting a professional man, and have scholastic ability.
Today Alpha Omega boasts of thirty-seven chapters in the United States and Canada and is
recognized as the largest Jewish dental fraternity in the world. The accomplishment of such a
great organization was made possible only through the strictest adherence to the basic principles
upon which the fraternity was founded. Quality has never been sacrificed for numbers, and even
today young Alpha Oraegans in appraising students for membership to the fraternity do not relax
from the requirements set down by the founders. It is through this strict vigilance that the strength
of Alpha Omega has ever increased. Among our 4,000 f raters scattered all over the world, are
found leaders in every field of dentistry and it is often that these men openly attribute their achieve-
ments to the ideals instilled in them by the fraternity.
No greater compliment can be paid to an idea or project, than that it has fulfilled the ideals
upon which it was founded. Early Alpha Omegans today observe with pride the consummation
Oi their fond hopes that some day Alpha Omega would become a great fraternal organization.

GORGAS HISTORY
IHE Ferdinand J. S. Gorgas Odonto-
logical Society was founded at the University of Maryland Dental School in
the winter of 1916. The founders adopted the name in honor of Dr. Ferdinand
J. S. Gorgas, a great contributor to dentistry and dental literature. The first
officers of the Society were Dr. J. Ben Robinson, our present dean. President;
Dr. A. C. Albert, of Huntington, W. Va., Vice-President; Dr. A. Z. Aldridge,
of Baltimore, Secretary; and Dr. B. Sargent Wells, of the Crown and Bridge
Department, Treasurer.
The requirements for admission to membership in the Society were good
standing in the dental school and the desire to better oneself and the dental
profession. The objects of the society are best expressed in words of the code
of the Society: "The objects of the F. J. S. G. O. S. of the University of Maryland
shall be to create an active interest in questions pertaining to the dental pro-
fession, to develop the student's power of thought, and to contribute to his
development by participation in the discussion of professional topics; to promote
the interest of the profession at large by creating in the student's mind a feeling
of need for professional touch and associations and to establish higher ideals
of service for life's work." In the twenty-one years of the Society's existence
the objects have remained unchanged.
At times it seemed as if interest were lost in the Society's objectives and
activities. It was only through the efforts of the founders and interested mem-
bers that the Society survived. In 1926 the Society adopted a constitution under
which it now functions. The constitution set scholarship as the basis for ad-
mission to membership in the Society. A man becomes eligible for membership,
under the new constitution, in the beginning of his junior year if his work in
the previous two years has been of a high quality, or at the beginning of his
senior year if his work of the previous three years has been suitable. An ag-
gregate average of 85% is now the minimum requirement.
The Society extends to its members the privilege of open discussion and the
opportunity to hear papers and clinics presented by men high in the dental
and medical professions. Aside from clinics and discussions, monthly meetings
are held at which time the business and future activities of the Society are
discussed.
On December 5, 1936 the Society held its annual initiation banquet and
dance. Dr. C. Williard Camalier, the president-elect of the A. D. A., was
presented with honorary membership, and Dr. Huntington Williams was the
guest speaker of the evening.
As the years pass it is becoming more evident that the Gorgas Society
fulfills a definite need in our school in view of the trend of dental education.
The profession is growing and expanding in practice and education. Emphasis
on oral diagnosis, prevention and systemic involvements resulting from oral
conditions are becoming paramount. In view of these trends fhe Society
endeavors to present lecturers representative of various branches of dentistry,
medicine and economics.
Among the prominent lecturers before the Society were Dr. Leo Winter of
New York University who discussed phases of oral surgery, and Dr. Frank Lynn
of Baltimore who discussed most capably "Modern Trends in Medical and
Dental Economics."
It is interesting to note that the F. J. S. G. O. S. was the first undergraduate
study club founded in a dental school of the United States, a fact which makes
the members of the Society justly proud.

THE STUDENT'S PRAYER
o
UR instructors who are in the clinic,
hallowed be thy names.
Thy wills be done in the infirmary as they are done in textbooks.
Give us this day our daily points and forgive us for our shy margins, as
we forgive those patients who disappoint us.
Lead us not into temptation by burnishing and deliver us from the evil of
the instrument dealers — for thine is the kingdom and the power to flunk us
for ever and ever. Amen.

DID YOU KNOW?
IHE number of outstanding men in
the class of 1937 is truly amazing. The statistics show that several men rank
high in the eyes of their classmates in respect to certain qualifications.
Isaac Sloan received an overwhelming vote as the best dressed man. Hail
the new Prince of Wales!
■ The count for best handshaker was indeed close. After the smoke had
cleared it was found that the art is best practiced by Greenberg, who nosed
out Pugh by just a few votes. Seidler, Nacrelli, Aks, and Lessow polled a few
votes.
To show the conceit of seniors, a majority of men voted for themselves as
those likely to be most successful in the practice of dentistry. For individuals,
Clewlow received the greatest number of votes, with Swinehart running second.
One vote was for Chas. Deeley & Son.
The Don Juan of the class is Burton — Mirabella, runner-up. Behold the
handsomest man of the class — by a sweeping vote — it's Joe Reynolds!
Balloting for the most popular man was close. Richardson had a slight
lead over Kanelos on the final count. Also-rans were Pugh, Joe Downs, Seidler,
Nacrelli, Finkelstein.
The number of men in running for the biggest liar was astounding. In
the final tabulation they lined up thus: Pugh, Greenberg, Joe Downs, Edwards,
Berkowitz. It's a pity, they seem to be so fine and upstanding.
The Jim Parleys of the class were readily picked out. Thus does the odium
of politician assert itself. The biggest Farley was Nacrelli. Small fellows were
Seidler and Pugh.
The outstanding examples of that most desirable station in life — a gentle-
man— were placed in the following order: Clewlow, Swinehart, Fulmer, and
Heuser.
That the boys cast their votes right is shown by the following tabulation.
For the most conscientious, Clewlow was first with Joe Salvatore second. Others
well up in the vote count were Shobin, H. Davis, Swinehart, and Silverstein.
To be the laziest man in the class is quite a distinction — such a man is more
distinguished than the wearer of a D. S. C. or purple cross, or even President
Roosevelt. Kenny Downs, the seniors have decided, must be the nearest thing
to inertia in a living organism yet discovered. George Glick was next in choice.
The best heckler was voted to be Edwards, with Simon and Kenny Downs
next in line. We can't be sure what this proves but Kenny Downs and M. O.
Davis were voted the best lovers.
It was interesting to see who has the most fun out of dentistry. Kanelos was
first, Nacrelli second, and third in votes received were the Dental School
professors! Casey and Edwards were also mentioned.
Of the 62 votes cast for the biggest course rusher, Henry Davis received 55.
No more need be said.
And now we come to the confessions supplement to our up-to-date question-
naire. At least one-half the class drink liquor. Living up to Maryland tradition
the liquor of preference is rye — one vote for grade A milk. Presuming that
all of us will get married we expect to have 234 children each. One man
answered this question of children thus — "Ask the Missus!" One fundament-
alist replied — "God only knows!"

DENTAL PROVERBS
A rolling stone gathers no enamel
rods.
* * *
Never grind down tomorrow what
you can carve up today.

An inlay in the hand is worth two
down the drain.
A Vincent's by any other name
smells just as sweet.
* * *
If at first you don't succeed, show it
to another instructor.
* * *
A friend in need is a friend who will
trade an assignment.
It's always important to make a
good impression — on your plate
patients.
* * *
Don't count your points until they're
checked off.
* * *
Cast while the inlay ring is hot.
Points are the root of all evil.
Don't cement your bridges till you
get to them.
Here today and gone tomorrow —
silicates.

how about it, Saltman?

CLINICAL EVIDENCE
* * * OAY fellows. Gaze upon the facts.
* Says Dr. Leonard at the Maryland State Health Meetings, "I am known as
Chief; now to go on with my P. T. A. address." • We suggest Dr. Fetter attach
a string to his pencil. ■*• Why is Mark Davis always near the North side of the
clinic on a busy day? • Knock, Knock, was it true about "Moe Shure from the
Dental School"? • The biggest sucker in the class, Ike Sloan, made the trip
to Philly and the date stood him up. • When a question was needed we could
always depend on Byer or Shobin. *■ Don't say "Fink," just call me "Lou;"
never too busy to say hello. • If you saw an ax would it remind you of Caputo?
* Richardson the woodsman looked in the mirror the other day and then set
bear traps all over the house. * Do you remember anyone saying: "Where is
the Pharmacist in the class?"; "Incise and drain;" "Always remember, gentle-
,men, "the rubber dam' "? ■*• If Rosen could attach an engine cord to his Adams
Apple he could run a handpiece. • A record; Joe Downs spent three hours
adjusting first patient in the chair. • Credit for the sandbag idea in the nitrous
oxide clinic, goes to Moorefield. ■*• Do you remember when Markos asked
Dr. Latcham if he could slap in a coupla foils? • They say that Dave Levin is
the kind of a guy that believes the Madison Square Garden is a flower pot.
* Drawlingly pronounced allows one to clear throat, Glic-c-c-c-k. * Fox con-
tinues to use tongue depressor to keep patients from talking. • Did some of
the students make a mistake in studying dentistry, such as Eamich the G-Man,
Myers the musician, Miksinski the barber, H. Lavine the lawyer. Heck the
druggist, Nacrelli the politician, Kuperstein the taximan, Markos the bootblack,
Kanelos the hot dog boy, Jacobs the school teacher, Edwards the cartoonist,
Shobin the tutor, Poster the billiard champ, Clewlow the laboratory man?
* Give Simon a soapbox and he will talk against anything. * Skullbuster Green-
berg after two years in the clinic still believes the amalgam carrier is a grease
gun for the handpiece. • Leonard cannot be convinced that the Yanks are not
a dental school baseball team. ■*• We have proof that Heuser got his black eye
the other night trying to slam shut a revolving door. * Heckler K. Downes
still spells solder, s-o-d-d-e-r. ■*■ Another record; Zeiner is the only student in
the history of the school to scale the teeth of a patient before he knew she wore
full upper and lower dentures. • Darwin, what does the class think about it?
* Speaking of misplaced brains, we have discovered that Rosen's feet are
more familiar with the contents of his notebook than his head — we hope they
don't get frostbitten before June. • Enough of this nonsense, Simington wants
to sleep.

been to several shops this morning
to get an estimate but so far none
has given me a fair price."

A PATIENT'S SPECIFICATIONS
AND CRITICISM OF PLATES
(Contents of a letter sent to Ray Zeiner by patient)
Lower Plate
Makes gums sore well back on inside (not serious) .
Could not plates be shortened at least 1/4 inch?
There seems to be a gap between plate and gum near teeth at back end,
and on both sides.
After flanges have been reduced in size, why not bring them to a feathered
edge?
Upper Plate
In addition to being so loose that it drops down at times, the plate extends
so far back that it gags me at times.
With Apologies to Robert W. Service . . .
There are strange things done in the noonday sun
By the men who "foil" for gold.
The clinic trails have their secret tales
That would make your blood run cold;
The infirmary lights have witnessed queer sights,
But their queerest attraction
Was that day in the gloom of the exodontia room
I did my first extraction!
Roses are red;
Violets are blue;
Use a matrix.
When you do a Class II.

Ashes to ashes;
Dust to dust;
Oil your handpiece;
And it won't rust.

Designed by Dr. S. J. Mink
THEY make the making of preventable

Mink "Correlator" —
a Study Model Articulator
MADE especially for Columbia Ready-
Made Stone Model Bases. Enables
you to reproduce in simplified form all
mandibular movements in studying the
case or in explaining it to the patient.
The split posts on the "Correlator" slip
into metal sockets in the Ready-Made
Bases and thus permit a very simple
and quick means of mounting models.
Study Models let patients see their mouths as you see them.
Use them as regularly as you do X-Rays.

your office. It isn't necessary to create a burden-
some overhead in making a new equipment in-
stallation. For a very moderate cost, you can
install an S. S. White C or E Type Unit and a
Diamond Chair. The dignity and efficiency ex-
pressed by these will make your office inviting,
reassuring, and proclaim the up-to-date reliable
service that you are certainly capable of rendering.
Moreover, they will permit you to com-
mence practice with new, trouble-free equipment
— let you experience the joy of first ownership and
the inspiration that only new equipment can give.
Make it a point to see a demonstration of the
S. S. White C and E Type Units and remember that
the most simplified S. S. White Unit can be easily
built into a senior unit as the practice permits.

SAMSON'S SECRET
We are the only ones who make SAMSON
RUBBER Moreover, we are the only ones that
know how to make it.
<II THE PROGRESS IS A SECRET.
^ When we started in 1£65, our knowledge of
rubber was not nearly so profound as it is now-
In our 71 years of practical experience, we
learned how to make THE BEST dental rubber,
and that rubber is SAMSON.
Q Not the best because we say it is, but because
the dental profession admits it is.
Q Ask the progressive dealer.
